01
Best overall pick
Capps Pizza
East Main Street, Orwell • Classic Small-Town Pizzeria • Local Favorite
The go-to Orwell spot for hearty, no-nonsense pies and generous portions at fair prices.
Locals lean on Capps when they want a familiar, satisfying pizza without having to leave the village. The crust is sturdy enough for heavy toppings, and the menu runs deep with wings, subs, and easy add-ons for feeding a crowd. It’s the kind of place that remembers repeat orders and feels very much like Orwell’s hometown slice shop.
02
Best for bold toppings
Gionino's Pizzeria
West Main Street, Orwell • Carryout And Fried-Chicken Joint • Big-Flavor Carryout
Known for loaded pizzas and crispy fried chicken, this is the spot when you want a full comfort-food spread.
Gionino’s builds dense, cheesy pies with plenty of toppings, from old-school pepperoni to heavier specialty combinations. Many locals pair a sheet pizza with a box of their fried chicken for game days and family gatherings. It’s mainly a takeout operation, so call ahead, grab your order, and head home with enough food for the whole table.
03
Most convenient delivery
Domino's Pizza
Central Orwell • National Delivery Chain • Most Reliable Delivery
Fast delivery, late hours, and fully customizable pies make this the easy button for weeknight pizza.
Domino’s in Orwell runs like a well-practiced team, turning out consistent pizzas, breads, and pastas when you don’t feel like cooking. The online ordering and tracking are especially handy on busy nights or bad-weather days. It’s not trying to be gourmet, but for quick, predictable pies and sides, it hits the mark.
04
Best family stop
A&W Restaurant
Route 322, Orwell • Retro Drive-In Style Diner With Pizza On The Menu • Best For Families
A casual spot where you can pair a simple pizza with classic burgers, fries, and frosty root beer floats.
While A&W is better known for its root beer and burgers, the Orwell location also offers pizza, making it a flexible choice when everyone wants something different. Kids can split a pie while the grownups lean into the drive-in staples, all washed down with a cold mug of root beer. It’s more about the laid-back, roadside feel than artisan crust, but that’s part of the charm.
05
Worth-the-drive pick
Covered Bridge Pizza Parlor (Andover)
Andover, Short Drive East Of Orwell • Quirky, Historic Pizza Parlor • Worth-The-Drive Destination
A character-filled parlor in an old covered-bridge setting, serving nostalgic, shareable pizzas that feel like a local field trip.
If you don’t mind a short country drive, Covered Bridge Pizza Parlor in Andover is a fun change of pace from Orwell’s in-village options. The space leans into its bridge theme, and the pizzas are straightforward, thin-to-medium crust pies that work well for groups. It’s the kind of spot people remember from childhood and keep returning to for both the setting and the slice.
